About the artists and work
Clad in balaclavas, a band is emerging. It is not a punk band, not a rock band, not progressive, nor pioneering. They are Perfect Chicken. This is the dawn of regressive rock. No, not progressive rock. Standing as the ultimate antithesis to bands like Pink Floyd and King Crimson and especially out to oppose the legacy of Genesis, regressive rock spits in its face and offers up a complete flip side to its so-called ‘adventurous’ or ‘epic’ sounds.
Moss are an electronic duo from the north of England, operating mainly in the realms of the Trip Hop genre. The band was born in 2023 and has quickly gained respect from their peers on the North East electronic music scene.
Leaders of Men are a teenage punk band from the north east who are filled with energy and enthusiasm, ready to rock out on any stage.
Lurcher is a four-piece post-punk band blending tones of 70's abrasive punk and art rock with witty lyricism. They’ve recently been the focus of spotlight pieces with RTE and NARC magazine, reflecting the landscape of Hartlepool in their sound.
